Question for All Modders Out there

[Able72]

Ok, I can see that, to an extent, but as an example (forgive me I have not dl'd the mod so I don't know if you actually included this in the readme file for your mod or not)

"Torpedoe damage fix" is rather vague. How does this mod 'fix' the torpedoe damage? What was broken? Does it decrease the stock damage? Increase stock damage? Is it an effort to make the Damage more historically accurate (by taking the damage either direction)? In otherwords, in a 'thumbnail sketch' (only one or two lines needed probably) describe how this fixes the damage.

Example:

"Decreases chance to damage vital ship systems in an effort to more closely reflect historical accounts of actual torpedoe damage" or if SH3 uses a 'Hit Point' model for ship sinking:

"Decreases total hit point damage range caused by torpedoes from x-y in stock to z-w"

*edit*

Hmmm.....perhaps I should consider writing a guide for modders to writing a readme.txt file?

You could start with the Torpedo_Damage_Final mod because it's got nothing to do with what the title suggests
